Testimonial

" I think this is a very good backup program. I wanted to try it before I bought it to see if it would work on a new large 320gb Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 SATA drive (updating from a 160gb hard drive).I downloaded "the try before you buy" program last night and installed the Drive Backup Personal 8 Trial version and my Serial ATA card and the new SATA hard drive. After installing everything I started the program and selected the "One Button Copy Wizard" and let it do it's job in about 42 minutes. I then exited Windows, unplugged my old drive and made the new larger drive the master drive. I booted back up and there it was a perfect copy of my old drive, thanks to Paragon Drive Backup 8 Trial version. This is the one to buy! Keep up the good work."
